'''Guardians''' are one of the two types of defenses protecting the [[Patron]], along with [[Walker]]s. They are large metal automatons with a fiery brazier as a head. They fight by dealing continuous damage with a laser emitted from their torch, targeting all [[Trooper|Troopers]] and [[Heroes]] that enter its radius.[[File:Sapphire Guardian vs Trooper.png|thumb|A Sapphire Guardian attacking an enemy [[trooper]].]][[File:Amber Guardians..png|thumb|A pair of Base Guardians with active Backdoor Protection.]]

In total, there are '''9''' Guardians on either side of the [[Map]]; one in each lane acting as the first line of defense, and three sets of '''Base Guardians''' defending the base.

When there are no enemy troopers or players within '''{{NpcData|npc_boss_tier1|InvulnerabilityRange}}m''', the Guardian enters an invulnerable state, where it cannot be damaged by any means. When a trooper or enemy player enters the guardian's range, it will become vulnerable, targeting its laser onto the closest nearby enemy and dealing constant damage over time. However, the Guardian will not take any damage from the player if the player is outside the Guardian's range, even if it is vulnerable to troopers. Guardians take headshot damage to their "head," the brazier on top of their body.

Guardians possess a high resistance to damage early in the game that degrades over time. They start with 75% [[Damage Resistance]], which decays linearly down to -50% Resistance (taking increased damage) over the first 12 minutes of the match.

==Base Guardian==

Base Guardians start with {{NpcData|npc_barrack_boss|BackdoorBulletResistBase}}% Bullet Resistance. However, with each enemy hero nearby, they lose an additional {{NpcData|npc_barrack_boss|BackdoorBulletResistReductionPerHero}}%. With all six players nearby, a Base Guardian can effectively be reduced to -80% Bullet Resistance. This is likely to encourage fighting them as a team and prevent backdooring.

====Health Regeneration====

Like the [[Shrine|Shrines]] and [[Patron]], Base Guardians also have innate Health Regen when they have not been damaged for a while and during backdoor protection. While backdoor protection is active, they restore <b>{{NpcData|npc_barrack_boss|BackdoorHealthRegen}} Health/s</b>.
